Goku20,

You are missing the point I am trying to get across. I am okay with swearing as long as it serves an inherent purpose, such as driving forward an emotional part of a cutscene such as the moments in DMC 4 with Nero. He swears only a few times in the series, and that is to illustrate the struggles he faces as he tries to save Kyrie. Also, the older DMCs have been known for their more colorful dialogue without resorting to swearing. Like marine said, excessive swearing when it isn't needed makes a character appear flat and bland. The reason we all loved Dante of the old games were because of his witty, cheesy, and ultimately humorous lines and comebacks.

In regard to swearing, I am not just talking about Dante. There was one scene with Mundus and his girl (forgot her name) where he talks about his plans, and there was more swearing in that than there was in DMC 4 entirely. Dropping the F-bomb every 2 seconds gets old really fast.

Also, games are rated not by how many "M-rated" themes are in the game but by the amount in excess of those themes. By your logic, Black Ops 2 should be rated T since it doesn't have sex, nudity, or suggestive themes. I'm not going to go any further into this subject, since its not about DMC vs DmC. And I'll ask you this, how does your opinion on what makes an M-rated game relate to your knowledge of DMC 3 and 4?

Also, come back and talk to me about challenging games after you've played Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Wipeout, The Journey, Super Meatboy, Portal 1 and 2, and Binding of Isaac. Black Ops is child's play.
